No this just makes Voltron even more likely with Tagruato's ground breaking engineering department, who doyou think built Voltron..........

[deletia]

If theories about waking something sleeping deep in the mid-Atlantic ridge are correct, I think the Tagruato site actually explains how Cthulu is related. Not so much as a direct literal part of the movie, but rather as a source of creative inspiration. Lovecraft is one creepy mother, so I think some influence is a good sign.

I don't know that much about Lovecraftian lore. But would Cthulu rampaging about new york really be his stlye? Isnt most of it to do with insanity and subtleness.

[The Internet]

People shouldn't need the site to prove it, JJ himself said that it wasn't Culthu, did he not? There is no reason for him to lie really.

[quote=Waking a monster from the deep isn't a Lovecraftian creation. Hell, that happens everywhere. Weren't Godzilla, Gamera and a whole slew of other creatures that leveled Tokyo spawned the same way?[/quote]


Except that Lovecraft wrote about these things some 20-30 years earlier...

[Cthulhu]

I admit my fans are 'annoying' and inconclusive.
I will eat their souls eventually.
Let's just move on, and continue in this ARG.

[Cthulhu]

Last time someone tried to attack me, I just turned into a suffocating miasma and reconstructed myself. I'm not exactly corporeal, and you viewing me as this form is the constructed form of physical fear in the human psychy. If I where to awaken, my first move would be to bring out my friends who sleep with me, then reign in inhumane terror on your little sphere of three dimensional Euclidean geometry. No drilling is going to wake me up any time soon.

Anyways, Azathoth is an idiot pansy, listening to those flutes all eternity. I'm sure you get that one.

It really could go either way. Cthulhu could arguably fit the criteria for the movie monster. It has never been shown in a movie before, and it is an American monster, as H.P. Lovecraft was American. And before some idiot makes the claim that Cthulhu is a mythological creature from some ancient religion (stupid people have said that before), let me point out that Cthulhu and the Great Old Ones were conceived in the 20th century in short stories.

On the other hand, there is an aftermath in this movie. There is a video camera that survives this. Correct me if I'm wrong, but if the monster was actually Cthulhu (and I'm not saying this in a joking Chuck Norris kind of way) there would be no afterward. Not for the Earth, at least. From the stories I've read, he's a sort of apocalyptic end-all for the planet Earth. And as has been said earlier, Cthulhu only awakens when the stars are right. Some underwater nectar/jelly/hallucinogenic sea-bears would be so beneath him.

And as always, O Dread Cthulhu, I am your humble servant.

P.S. AfterDystopia, I believe it is pronounced Shub-Niggurath, not Nub-Shiggurath.
